Chicken-Like Pot Pie Recipe

This recipe for Chicken-like pot pie is amazing. I miss having a good vegan pot pie! I like to try new recipes when I visit my friend in Fairbanks, AK.   I was there a couple weeks ago and it was COLD, like -29 degrees below 0 cold.

I felt like we needed some comfort casserole food and so I made us this recipe from The Warm Kitchen by Amy Fothergill for Chicken Pot Pie.   I made substitutions making the recipe dairy-free and meat free, since it was already Gluten-Free!  It was delicious!  I will be making this pot pie again and adding The Warm Kitchen to my list of top 10 Gluten-Free Cookbooks!    I know you will enjoy this recipe.   The meat substitute I used is called Beyond Meat.  It is Gluten FREE!  Look for it in your Natural Pantry.

Recipe for Chicken-Like Pot Pie

1.  Place the following in a large soup pot and bring to medium heat:  

3 cups Vegan Chicken Broth

2 cups canned Coconut Milk

1/2 tsp each dried thyme, sage and rosemary ( or poultry seasoning )

1/4 tsp black pepper

1 tsp sea or kosher salt

2.  Make Slurry of 1/4 cup cornstarch and 1/4 cup cold water and add the slurry to the broth above when bubbles start to form and mix well.

3.  Add the following and simmer about 2o minutes until thickened:

1 package cubed Beyond Meat’s substitute  Chicken

2 cups mixed vegetables ( I used peas, corn, broccoli, onions and green beans )

4.  Pour into a 9 x 13 inch baking pan and top with Drop Biscuit Topping. ( Recipe follows below )

Bake at 375 degrees for 40 minutes or until Biscuits are golden on top.

Recipe for Drop Biscuit Topping

1. Mix together dry ingredients by hand or process in a food processor by pulsing.   I mixed by hand.  

1/3 cup shortening or butter

1 1/2 cups gluten free flour mix ( I used pure pantry )

1 tsp xanthan gum if  it is not in your GF Flour mix above.

1 tsp sea or kosher salt

1 Tablespoon sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

2/3 cup whole milk ( I used almond milk )

3 eggs

1 tsp white vinegar

**ADD wet ingredients to the dry mixture and mix lightly. I used a cookie batter scooper to put the Biscuit Topping on the Chicken-Like Hot Mixture.

Bake at 375 degrees for 16 minutes and enjoy this pot pie!
